Geoff's Gallery:   Yellow Thornbill (1/2)

PASSERIFORMES: Acanthizidae

Acanthiza nana  

I was stalking a Red-capped Robin when this yellow thornbill flew into the tree in front of me.

A slow motion chase then ensued until I finally got a photo.

Birds can lead you a merry dance and then suddenly stop and pose for you so you have to be ready!
